*WARNING* Crab Rangoon Dip is highly addictive! And it’s so easy to make. That makes is a dangerous combination, but it is a recipe you need in your life! Once you try making this and taste the yummy goodness of it, you will see for yourself just how amazingly easy and heavenly this dip is! And then you will be addicted as well.
What Is Crab Rangoon
Crab Rangoons (sometimes referred to as crab puffs) are filled dumpling appetizers in most Asian restaurants. The filing is a cream cheese mixture that most times includes imitation crab meat and a few key seasonings. Typically, these delectable treats are fried. Definitely not a healthy snack, but so so good!
Of course the crispy wonton adds to the deliciousness, however, the filling is absolutely the BEST part of this appetizer! I mean, most people could eat just the filling and be very happy. With this crab rangoon dip, you can have just that. And then you can eat it with a spoon…or be more civilized and use your favorite crunchy chip, cracker, or wonton in place of a spoon.
Ingredients Needed
- 2 cups Imitation Crab Meat
- 2 pkgs Cream Cheese 8 oz packages, I use 1/3 less fat cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream
- 4 Green Onions Chopped
- 1.5 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
Making The Dip
As previously mentioned, this is a very easy to make recipe. Basically, you chop up the imitation crab meat and scallions, then mix everything together. You can eat it as-is at this point or bake it in the oven so that it gets warm and bubby. Mmm! Either way, you truly cannot go wrong.
